Lifestyles have changed and Access To Treasure is in a position to teach others the importance of getting the most for their dollars. Not only has their company taken the opportunity to pass on savings, but our business is made up of local vendors who are doing the same. In the spirit of a co-op, Access To Treasure is allowing others in the community to join in learning the value of recycling valuables. In this economy people are looking to get more bang for their bucks. Thrift stores & flea markets are quickly replacing department stores as go to locations for higher ticket items.
